New SQL2000 installation into which I've copied data from multiple SQL7 installations. Some of the databases I've copied over from a SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 42, using the detach-copy mdf/ldf-attach procedure outlined elsewhere on this site (thank you). Other databases have been DTS'd from another SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 44.
In the end I want all databases to be in the default Latin1_General_CI_AI collation I've chosen for my installation.
I'm off to immerse myself in collation papers and alter database documentation from BOL, but was hoping someone could enlighten me in a less painful way.
I need to select collation settings to support chinese characters. As i came to know that i need to select 950 character set. But problem is that i am not able to find the option for chinese characters i.e, 950 character set in the collation settings of the setup. It will be helpful if anyone could suggest me if there is any other option to set while set up or in an existing sql server instance to support chinese character data.
I am facing one problem when I am trying to create some stored procedures, Msg 468, Level 16, State 9, Procedure SG_GET_USER_SECTOR_POSITION, Line 11 Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "Arabic_CI_AS" and "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" in the equal to operation. Msg 468, Level 16, State 9, Procedure SG_GETRANKLIST, Line 4 Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Arabic_CI_AS" in the equal to operation. I need to change these collation settings, please help me how to change them.
Hi, I'm installing SQL Server 2005 on windows 2003 R2. Which Collation Designator is to be used so that the both English as well as Arabic characters can be stored simultaneously...? That is "The collation settings designator which support both Arabic as well as English character set"...
I installed the samples and tutoriales on the same server as SQL Server 2005 and VS 2005 Team Suite. Living in Belgium, the local settings are: language = Duch (Belgium) code page = 850 e.g. in the database samples (AdventureWorks database €“ AdventureWorks Warehouse database) my date notation is: 26-12-2005 my number notation is: 1,0013016921998599
all demo samples and tutorials are developed using language = English (United States) code page 1252 e.g. in SampleCurrencyData.txt the date notation is: 12/26/2005 00:00:00 the number notation is: 1.0013016921998599
I do not have any problems to test the diferent services (Data Base Engine Services, Analysis Services, reporting & notifications services ..) but I do not succeed to deploy any samples of integration services !
e.g. for Integration Services Tutorial - lesson 1: €śCreating the Project and Basic Package€? there are no error messages, 1097 rows are processed but, checking the result in the database, no data is updated in the FactCurrencyRate table of the AdventureWorksDW database !
Why? - is the problem related to the local language settings? how to solve this? - what is the influence of the code page ? is there any compatibility between 1252 and 850 as code page? - Server collation (e.g. Latin_1_General_CI_AS) is reported as key for the Unicode notation for character strings but what about notation of numbers? - when to use float data type DT_R4 or DT_R8? - I have remarked that the DT_DBTimeStamp is undependent from the source time notation €“ Is this correct? - what is the difference between DT_Date and DT_DBDate or DT_DBTime, or DT_DBTimeStamp? - Is Integration Services dependant of the local settings of the database engine? - how to set / modify additional regional properties in a SSIS and SSRS package? - how to change the default setting of the Flat File Connection Manager [starting the wizard, the local setting for the language €“ Dutch appears and this is OK for me but as codepage appears 1252 (ANSI Latin) and this is not OK as my server code page = 850]? - how to work with e.g. US based data as source and Belgium settings for reports?
I've restored a SQL Server 2000 database with a Latin1_General_BIN collation from a .dmp file to a SQL Server 2005 server with a default collation of SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. When I try to change the database collation I get hundreds of the following error:
The object 'CK_PM10200_GLPOSTD_00AF8CF' is dependent on database collation. So, in this case, is it even possible to change the collation if there are objects in the database that are dependent on it?
I am using SQL Server 2008. In ServerProperty function, there are two properties called “Collation” and “CollationID”. In some cases, I will only know the CollationID. Is it possible get the collation name from the CollationID? Is there a function called CollationNameFromID?

I am running AWE on SQL 2000 (the server has 8 gig of RAM). I have the SQL Server set to use a max of 6 gig. The server hung unexpectedly (SQL showed no errors or signs). Has anyone had any problems with using AWE, and or any suggestions or changes I might need to do? Thanks
I've got a problem with an American software vendor, who's asked me to check and adjust the regional settings within SQL Express 2005, installed on an XP SP2 pc
I'm scanning meta data into this database
If I enter a date field with a UK date format, I get an error in the SQL logs
If I enter a date field with a US date format, everything is fine
The XP box is setup with all UK region settings
I've been told that my SQL install should automatically use the region settings from whatever OS that it's installed on
I've checked everywhere within SQL, and it all looks to be setup with UK region settings
I suggested to the software vendor that the problem lies with their software
Can anyone suggest if I've missed anything, or where I should be checking my region settings within SQL?
with the administrators group im able to view my reports. but normal users are not able to view anything. they can enter reporting services, but not open a report.
I am sure I'm being blind here (it wouldn't be the first time - and won't be the last time).
I have a package that retrieves some values from SQL table to allow me to dynically create an email message, so it retrieves To Addresses, From Address, Header, Body from a table, populates variables, and uses expressions to assign those to the SEND MAIL TASK.
That is working (after a bit of head/wall/banging to get my default virtual SMTP server running locally).
Now I am trying to make the SMTP Server Name dynamic. The Property SMTPConnection specifies the SMTP Connection Manager to use, and not the server, so it doesn't seem as though I can configure a property on the SEND MAIL TASK to achieve this.
Now I'm focussing on using SQL Package Configurations to try and drive this. As I see it, just like XML configurations, if you change a value in the configuration source, then when the package runs, it get's that value, and uses it.
I have change the configuration value (outside of the package). I confirm it is actually changed by running a SQL Task that gets the value from the configuration table, and view the value assigned to the variable in watches. The value returned is a different value (in my case I changed it to an invalid servername), and yet the task still runs through successfully, using the previous SMTP servername.
I wanted to know if there is a way to enforce security settings on SQL 8 Server. Specifically password lengths, expiration,e tc. These servers run on a Windows Platform, so if it is not possible to enforce passwords at the database level can the windows passwords parameters be enforced for the server.
Also, how would I be able to find the last changes made to the tables within the database.
I need to place some site settings in my Report Manger.But in my Report Manager there is no Site Settings Icon.Is this installation problem please help me.
I have a page that uses an SQLDataSource web control to populate a GridView control. The SQLDataSource control uses three parameters, one of which is a text string (varchar(50)). I get timeout expired exceptions when I run the page with two specific string values, yet when I run the stored procedure in SqlSvr Management Studio, the procedure runs in 5 seconds and under 1 seconds. Being rnew to ASP.NET 2.0 and .Net in general, I have no idea where this lag is occurring. I would like to know two things: 1. What is causing the lag that causes the timeout in ASP.NET 2.0. 2. What can be done to adjust the timeout period SQLSVR, IIS, ASP.NET). The underlying query is running as desired (considering the data it has to chew on). For all other values, data is returned almost instantanious. I can provide a copy of the query id need be. Truly appreciate any insight you can give me!
INSERT [DELETE] failed because the following SET options have incorrect settings: 'ARITHABORT'. Verify that SET options are correct for use with indexed views and/or indexes on computed columns and/or query notifications and/or xml data type methods. On local dev machine with SQL Express DB everything works fine. Once moved to shared hosting environment (with adjustments to web.config), insert and delete stored procedures produce the above error. Made sure that stored procedures SET ARITHABORT ON at the beginning and OFF at the end, without success. Even SET ARITHABORT ON at DB level without success. Suggestions appreciated

Hello all. I created an app locally with VWD Express and moved it to to our server but I am getting the following error... An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file D:WebApp_DataSurvey.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share. This is the connectionstring from the web.config file used on the server. I did not change anything from the local copy. <connectionStrings> <add name="SurveyConnectionString1" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Survey.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </connectionStrings> What settings do I need to change in order for this to work? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
I was wondering how to change the language settings on SQL Server. The server is currently set to US English, and I was wondering how it is possible to change it to UK English. The Server Regional Settings are set to UK English.
Also, on a semi-related topic, does SQL Server store dates in a universal format, and then when data is requested does it 'translate' these dates into the format required by that particular regional setting?
Using the Agentpress theme I have put together a client site that is fully functional, however the client has asked that the search query is altered slightly and i'm having trouble working out how to do it.Basically they want the search facility provide the following options:

2. Property availability to provide just 2 options - Available and Include Let Properties.
how to change the search settings to return this information.

I will doing an installation of MS SQL 2000 that will be used by multilanguage web sites.The languages are Japanese, German and of course English.Currently I'm planning to install MS SQL 2000 standard version butafter reading some articles I'm considering the Enterprise version.Can someone shed some light on the advantages of using Enterprise vsStandard strictly from a language support perspective?Also, is there any caveats or other considerations that I should keepin mind to make sure that the developers have all they need to developthese multi language sites?Thanks in advance.
I am creating an image gallery system, where there is an admin andmultiple users upload images. Each user is restricted to uploading 8images. Currently, I have this hard coded into a trigger. I wouldlike it to use a table field instead... one that the admin can changeon the fly. I want to call this table Settings, but I want to createinsert 1 record, and then block all subsequent INSERT statements(there's only going to be 1 setting) so that the Settings table willonly have 1 record in it for its entire lifetime. What's the best wayto do this?
Hi,In the Web application I am working on, data is read from a SQL Serverdatabase. At any time, there are about 15 people browsing the web.The SQL Server database is updated with new information once everyhour. The update takes a couple of minutes. The isolation level duringthe update is so to Serialazable so that the front-end does not getany incorrect data.Now, here is my problem. When the web page is being loaded, the serverside ASP.NET code uses several SELECT statements at multiple places.For various design reasons, these SELECT statements cannot be combinedinto a single statement. As a result, it may happen that during thepage load, we get some data before an update and some data after anupdate.I am wondering if I must used a transactional lock even for the Webapplication although technically it is not updating the database.Also, after playing with various transactional settings, I noticed thefollowing behavior for the readers when a writer enters a transaction:1. If the reader app has not yet executed the query, the call to queryexecution blocks until the writer has done its job.2. If the reader app has already begun executing the query, the callis not blocked and SQL Server provides the needed isolation.I do not wish to block the readers while the update is going on.Ideally, I would like it to be such that even if the writer isupdating, the readers must continue to get the old data, that is,until the writer commits the update. However, I did not find anyisolation settings that would let me achieve this non-blockingbehavior. Am I missing something?Thank you in advance for enlightening me.Pradeep
ok im trying to set up an odbc connection to my database. i am using MS SQL SERVER 2005 Express on my labtop that is running windows xp.
on the labtop i went into control panel - admin tools - data sources (odbc) and then under the user dns tab i added a sql server with these values in the fields name: MyFoxData Description: [i left empty] Server: TESTINGSQLEXPRESS
then i hit next
then i have checked With Sql Server authentication using a login id and password entered by users. i enter in my login id and password. i then uncheck connect to sql server to obtain default settings. i hit next and change default database to DNN445 and i leave everything else the way it is, before i save it i test the connection and it works fine.
I do the same exact steps on my desktop to try and connect to the SQL database on the labtop but for some reason i keep getting this message
Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.85.1117
Running connectivity tests...
Attempting connection [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]Specified SQL server not found.
I recently installed SQL Server on a machine running Windows Server 2003. Before it was on my desktop. When I checked the TCP/IP settings under configuration manager, I noticed it doesnt have anything for my IP address. I just have a entry for the 127.0.01 loopback address. I know when I had it installed on my desktop there was a entry for my IP address. Is this ok or did something go wrong and it didnt set the IP address? I can still login and access the databases fine from Managament Studio.
Also would it better to have the services run as a network service or a local service?
